Posted on by

Opened in 1988

  • first gun range in Las Vegas
  • 30 lanes
  •  2 new large VIP Bays with 6 lanes in each
  • more than 60 types of firearms to rent

One of the oldest Shops in vegas, but still in the top 3

My first experience with Machine gun rentals was here in vegas in the 1990s seeing @thegunstore on the way to the strip

how COOL was a full auto rental experience while on vacation
Needless to say I shot their Tommy gun way back then, took the parents and siblings too, thier first experiences I’m sure

Now there are a dozen other rental ranges, and The Gun Store holds its own, growing and increasing inventory over the years

One of my favorites, always friendly staff, good conversations too

This visit the gun shop was being remodeled, so just visited the rental portion of the shop

Saw a few groups arrive as i visited, all were international travelers, again, VERY cool to see 2A tourism thriving
Thank You to @TheGunStore in Las Vegas Nevada for being there all these years for the millions of visitors Vegas gets, many of them see your invitation to Shoot Full Auto guns
